Supercard of Honor XII

[Dark One]

Cody vs Kenny and some other shit.

I don't know. I barely follow ROH, BUT HEY. If you're watching this show for Kenny vs Cody, maybe we can talk here.

[Dark One]

Just switched to the stream to see a finish to a championship Last Man Standing match that would have made Batista and Cena blush.

Wow.

Not a good way to convince people to stick around after TakeOver.

[Dark One]

Now Cheeseburger and some random jobber facing off with shrunken Konnor from the Ascension and shrunken Surfer Viktor.

Did somebody tell them Takeover is over

[Triple A]

If anyone has a stream, pls pm/rep me.

[Simple Fan]

Yeah switched over as well. I'll probably go back and watch Page vs Ibushi later. Tanahash and Lethal cs Briscis was on during NXT main event.

[Emperor Smeat]

Now Cheeseburger and some random jobber facing off with shrunken Konnor from the Ascension and shrunken Surfer Viktor.

Did somebody tell them Takeover is over
Should have told the crowd in advance this was going to be the piss break segment since supposedly a big chunk of the crowd left for a piss during the WoH tournament finals match.

Then again based on what I read, ROH botched the handling of their entire Women's tournament and some rumors Stardom might want to work with the WWE instead.

[Dark One]

Now WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray joining Cheeseburger to replace other jobber to face shrunken Surfer Viktor and Shrunken Konnor.

[Dark One]

Couldn't they have done this shit during Takeover instead of Ibushi/Page and shit?

[Dark One]

God bless Bully Ray.

[Triple A]

smh @ ROH fans chanting "what"...

[Dark One]

What do you mean "your kind?!"

[Dark One]

Bully Ray becoming Kevin Nash.

Hope he recruits Alex Shelley.

[Dark One]

The hall of fame ring corrupted Bully Ray like a red lantern ring.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: Bubba threatening to shut down the event by using a forbidden move.

[Triple A]

haha @ threatening to piledrive him and having the Louisiana State Athletic Commission shut the show down

[Dark One]

Bully Ray forming a uber heel faction with the NOLA State Athletic Commision.

Did Emma win? Too lazy too look

[Triple A]

typo in the ROH graphic smh

"THE AMERICAN NIGHMARE"

[Dark One]

"THE AMERICAN NIGHMARE"

Clearly they translated it from an NJPW graphic.

[Emperor Smeat]

Did Emma win? Too lazy too look

She lost in the semis based on the results for the show. Even her handling by ROH was a mess since she mainly got pre-show and Youtube status for her tourney matches.

[Simple Fan]

Did Emma win? Too lazy too look

She didn't make the finals.

[Dark One]

lol @ Bernard the Business Bear.

[Dark One]

Cody Rhodes is a hell of a heel. Definitely up there with Ciampa.

[Simple Fan]

Here we go, surprised this didn't go on last.

[Dark One]

Here we go, surprised this didn't go on last.

For once ROH is putting their own shit ahead of NJPW shit.

I think Cody vs Kenny is definitely a bigger match than Marty vs Dalton Castle, but given that this is mostly an NJPW thing, I get why they'd put the ROH title last.

[Dark One]

Did Kenny kick Cody so hard last week his iris changed colors? Jesus.

[Dark One]

ROH production and direction may actually be improved by Kevin Dunn. Yeesh.

[Dark One]

RIP Kenny Omega

[Evil Vito]

I might have to check Cody/Kenny later. Takeover's been off for a little over an hour and I still can't bring myself to process any more wrestling at the moment.

Not sure if watching it immediately after the blood feud match of Gargano/Ciampa has taken some of the shine off of it, but it hasn't exactly been a mindblowing match so far.

[Dark One]

RIP Brandi.

[Emperor Smeat]

Cody-Omega match has been pretty good. Brandi taking the table spot was interesting.

:lol: at Cody not really caring what happened to his wife.

[Dark One]

Damn, she took that V-Trigger head on.

[Dark One]

Here we go, now we're cranking up.

[Dark One]

Flip slidin' into those DMs.

[Dark One]

Cody pulling out a fucking Vertebreaker. Wow.

[Dark One]

Presumably now we're going to get some Young Bucks chicanery

[Dark One]

THOSE GODDAMN JEZEBELS

[Dark One]

Would've been better in the Tokyo Dome.

[Emperor Smeat]

That was a pretty great ending to Cody-Omega and pay off for the Bucks storyline even though their plan backfired.

[Triple A]

Pretty good match I guess... Def feeling burned out on wrestling now maybe. Worried about having to watch 13 hours of WrestleMania tomorrow.

[Simple Fan]

Good match. Sill leave more for All In.

[Triple A]

I'll watch this match I guess... I like Dalton Castle's gimmick

[Dark One]

Pretty good match I guess... Def feeling burned out on wrestling now maybe. Worried about having to watch 13 hours of WrestleMania tomorrow.

I hear you.

Kenny vs Cody was one of the matches I was most looking forward to this weekend, and it was "good" but didn't really do it for me anywhere near as much as I expected.

Not sure if it's a result of it losing some of its luster after the Gargano/Ciampa blood feud match, RoH's production and stuff being way lesser than NJPW/NXT/WWE, or what.

Probably doesn't help it was preceded by the absolute worst Last Man Standing finish in the history of this industry and 45 minutes of Cheeseburger and Bully Ray bullshit.

[Dark One]

I mean, Marty Scurll legit killed Will Ospreay last week but Will Ospreay's corpse managed to hit an OsCutter.

Not sure what Dalton Castle's gonna do here. Wait. He has 4 boys, that seems unfair. Wait.. 20 boys?

Godspeed Scurll.

[Dark One]

Pretty good match I guess... Def feeling burned out on wrestling now maybe. Worried about having to watch 13 hours of WrestleMania tomorrow.

Don't worry buddy.

I'll be there with you. At least for hours 2 through 97.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at Dalton's middle finger antics.

[Dark One]

:lol: at Dalton's middle finger antics.

Had to dig deep into the gooch for that one.

[Emperor Smeat]

Had to dig deep into the gooch for that one.
Yeah that came dangerously close to needing a TV-MA style pop up appear on the screen.

[Emperor Smeat]

Now that I think about it, way more tamer than a similar spot done last night at Janela's show.

[Triple A]

Feel like the Omega match should have been last... Crowd seems dead/exhausted

[Dark One]

Feel like the Omega match should have been last... Crowd seems dead/exhausted

Really no way for RoH to win. They've been taken to ask for YEARS for putting NJPW guys and angles over all of their own in-house stuff and hurting their own product/stars as a result.

I'd venture that most people bought the show or went to the show over TakeOver primarily for Kenny vs Cody, but if they had put it on last, there'd be a vocal group of their diehards bitching because they put an NJPW angle--even if Bullet Club has done more for RoH than probably anything in the last like decade--losing their shit about it.

[Dark One]

This show has apparently been as long as Mania is going to be tomorrow, which explains why the crowd is so fucking dead.

[Dark One]

Also sounds like a lot of people left after Kenny/Cody based on the fact the show has been going on for 47 hours, it's midnight there, and people have Mania/Axxess stuff stupid early tomorrow morning.

[Dark One]

Me watching the like 95th hour of wrestling today:

[Dark One]

Nice spot with the ref not being able to count with the broken fingers, but that means this match is gonna go for another 45 minutes.

[DaveWadding]

Sounds like this was a shitshow.

[Dark One]

Sounds like this was a shitshow.

I would place this at least slightly above TNA's first Live Monday show.

[Emperor Smeat]

Feel like the Omega match should have been last... Crowd seems dead/exhausted

Yeah and also didn't help it played a huge role in the spike in ticket sales for this year's event.

Like Dark One mentioned, ROH was going to be in a lose-lose situation regardless what they picked. Put Omega-Cody on last, ROH gets more complaints about not caring for their own product. Put Dalton-Scrull on last, good chunk of the crowd bails or is tired since the match they wanted the most already happened.

[Triple A]

Really liked that match actually... more than the Omega/Cody match

[Dark One]

Good match, but this proved ROH is probably not going to be worth carving out time in addition to WWE/NXT/NJPW.

[Dark One]

Really don't understand how Scurll consistently loses to zombies after murdering his opponent.

[Simple Fan]

Good match and I take back Omega and Cody going on last. Thought Marty had it for s bit, Being the Elite should be good this week. Probably go back and watch Ibushi/Hangman and then check out the House of Hardcore show.

[Evil Vito]

Based on what I've been reading on Twitter, a lot of the fans who left early are particularly pissed off about the intermission and the Cheeseburger segment after the intermission contributing to the show going needlessly long.

Yeah... Also not a good look for people switching over from Takeover.

The first like hour after Takeover was the worst ending to a Last Man Standing match ever, even worse than Cena/Batista by a slight margin, and then an interminable Cheeseburger/Jobber/Bully Ray segment. Almost bad enough to make me turn it off even before Cody/Kenny.

[Dark One]

House of Hardcore is on Twitch.TV right now because wrestling must be on for 96 hours straight.

Teddy Hart is apparently not dead, which is a surprise. Not accompanied by cats, as is the Hart family tradition.

[Simple Fan]

Cage vs Aries now, should be a good one

[Frank Drebin]

Go to bed. All of you.

[Dark One]

Go to bed. All of you.

That's what Wrestlemania is for tomorrow.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Watching now, feels like a lot of filler on the card. Ibushi/Page was fantastic, the ladder match is utterly wonderful... But man, that guy Ishii was fighting shouldn't be in a ring.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Yeah, think the ROH Bucks ladder match beat the NXT one.

[Jordan]

There is no way ROH Supercard topped NXT Takeover... did it?

[Dark One]

There is no way ROH Supercard topped NXT Takeover... did it?

God no.

[Simple Fan]

Ibushi vs Page was probably the best match I've seen this week. Ladder match was good as well and might have been better than the NXT ladder match. Both were good.

[Simple Fan]

Based on what I've been reading on Twitter, a lot of the fans who left early are particularly pissed off about the intermission and the Cheeseburger segment after the intermission contributing to the show going needlessly long.

Apparently the intermission was because of problems with Honor Club. Probably crashed after so many came on after NXT.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

There is no way ROH Supercard topped NXT Takeover... did it?

Nooo. The ladder match and Ibushi/Page were a lot of fun. Cody/Omega was a little disappointing. Main event was fine.

[Simple Fan]

She lost in the semis based on the results for the show. Even her handling by ROH was a mess since she mainly got pre-show and Youtube status for her tourney matches.

Should have told the crowd in advance this was going to be the piss break segment since supposedly a big chunk of the crowd left for a piss during the WoH tournament finals match.

Then again based on what I read, ROH botched the handling of their entire Women's tournament and some rumors Stardom might want to work with the WWE instead.

They only have an hour of TV a week and featured a tournament match pretty much every week. They've also devoted a whole week to the women with Women of Honor shows. Dashwood did have matches on ROH TV as well. Putting it on YouTube probably isn't a bad idea eifher considering their biggest storyline coming in to Supercard had been played out on YouTube.
